Wind noise on motorway through doors

[Perrin21]

I have wind deflectors on my doors but there is a lot of wind noise when above 70mph. Is that door seals or just normal?

Its not normal as im sure they were not designed to do it but its very common mine does it! as do alot of others . Cures are new door rubbers its also been said if you bend the top of the doors in ( bit dodgey)that helps . Also new door hinges may help im going to order new rubbers from erics this week as a starting point.

seals, or door catch on door shut/pillar/whatever name could have moved over the years, could loosen a tad tap in and tighten.

so where is the best place to go for new door rubbers? How much do they cost?

Appantly there's a company called Nissan who might sell them.

Yep only Nissan for the rubbers i would have thought, i bought them all recently and they weren't cheap!

It's proabably worth looking at your hinges too; I know mine are pretty droopy, and I don't see the point in chaging the seals whilst the hinge isn't doing a great job of holding the door in place.

Having said that, it's been much better since Geoff and I had a go at adjusting them. I would recommend trying to adjust the doors back to square first, then see if you still need to replace the rubbers.

My doors don't seem to hang badly

yes I know that but the dealers are all franchised so they source their parts from different places. I thought you might know of somewhere less obvious and cheaper.
